 Pure listening pleasure Oct 01, 2009
I am a George Michael fan and own all of his albums, except the oldies. I already owned a copy of this CD and was replacing it as I lost the original! Love all songs on this CD, it is one of my favorites.

Older is a great masterpiece of a cd. I never get tired of it. after I havent heard it for awhile, the minute I start to listen, It just takes me back to where i left off the last time I heard it, straight into grooving. It is great music for turning down the lights and light up your fav candle. great stuff. u will not be disappointed.

Older being Michael's 1996 and his 3rd studio albums had such hits as "Jesus To A Child" , "Fastlove" and "Spinning the Wheel". The booklet is really nice with many stylish photos of the singer looking very debonair. The lyrics are very easy to read and at the end we get a list of whom and what they played on each track. 4/5.

Older & Wiser Aug 11, 2008
When it came down to the 90's, George Michael really did have a huge share of blows. He lost a major court battle with Sony music, in regards to demanding to be released from his contract due to artist rights, as well as dealt with the devistating deaths of his then partner, and his mother from complications of cancer. Nevertheless, he continued his way into his music. Unfortunately, that wasn't there in America because of a long-term absence from making music. George went on to Dreamworks SKG in America for his 1996 album, Older, which sadly wasn't there in record sales in America. He still showed his status overseas with the album selling over 8 million. Unfortunately for American die hard George Michael fans, Older had been out of print for a very long time until just now.
The 2008 re-release of George Michael's 1996 album Older, has finally made it to C.D. yet again. In response to the surprise success George has recently had with his music returning to the American airwaves thanks to the ABC show Eli Stone, and his second greatest hits collection, Twenty-Five earlier this year, Older still feels like a breath of fresh air. While the songs have been remastered very well, the album doesn't really add any gimmicks or extras from the original release. Still, the album contains a lot of classic songs that feel more subdued and intimate, in regards with his 1990's surroundings of life. The album includes the mellow and somber hits Jesus To A Child and You Have Been Loved, all the way to the strong dance beats of Fastlove and Spinning the Wheel. The songs here show a feeling that is much deeper in heart and soul, than what George had showed with success with his earlier records, Faith & Listen Without Prejudice Volume 1, that matches the deep and dark moods within the soul of the album.
All in all, Older shows what George Michael has done best throughout his career, and that really is making quality music from the soul, not for overexposure or cheap tricks, unlike other acts today that are just about hype than heart like Miley Cyrus or Britney Spears. If you have not yet heard the moods from Older, you now have a second chance to hear what feels more than just Jesus To A Child, and just simply the heart and soul of a great overlooked treasure that is George Michael.
